Where: the Varsity, in Atlanta, GA.

What: a chili cheese dog, because they’re the gold standard of hot dogs.

With whom: Trav. On Valentine’s Day. Because we’re romantic like that.

Why: the Varsity is famous as all get out and there wasn’t a better place to eat my Georgia hot dog.

Grade: B on the hot dog, A on the overall experience. Varsity hot dogs are just regular old hot dogs, but the point isn’t necessarily the hot dog itself and only itself — it’s the atmosphere, the lines, the history, and, well, the onion rings. The Varsity’s onion rings are fucking delicious.
